I have an APIM resource in my resource group. I delete it, but it only gets "soft deleted" so I can't update it now. How the heck do I purge it? This should be so easy, but its not.

    @Jordan Stevens Soft deleted APIM instances are deleted automatically in 48 hours.

    If you need to purge it manually, you can do so either by using the REST API or Azure CLI command.
